When: Saturday, April 25th @ 10am-whenever
Where: 238 Telser Rd Lake Zurich IL 60047

We have a 9,000lb lift, tools galore, and a great compressor. It's also a machine shop so if we have to make something, no problem.

There will be beer. Probably lots of beer. So stop in and say hi even if it's just for a few minutes!



Dream20b checking in from MSF.


I'll try to make it.

Interested. Do they have the TPMS sensors? I haven't been figuring in the cost for those.

Highly recommend the raceseng cascam plates. Barely any NVH introduced, bearings look like they are easy to replace and were relatively inexpensive when googled. Should be trivial to rebuild if/when needed

Your best bet is to check out the Upper Midwest FR-S/BRZ/FT-86 Owners FB page. That's where most of the meets get planned and posted.

Sound performance. $100 for one hour on the dyno. No tuning. Anybody know of anything cheaper? Just looking to get a baseline number.

Anyone getting a bbk in the future?

I laser cut some acrylic gauges that you put on the inside of your wheel that will let you know if the calipers will clear or not. I have gauges for the alcon, essex, and stoptech offerings if anyone needs to borrow them
